- PRIOR TO POSTING:
- Read the cases In re Shepard, 2010 Wash. LEXIS 723 (Wash. 2010) and Chandler v. Office of the Insurance Commissioner, 173 P.3d 275 (Wash. App,. 2007).
- Locate and read your state’s rules of professional conduct. My State is Alabama
- Use these case as a starting point to discuss the following:
- What is it about living trusts and reverse mortgages and about the way they are sold that make them an attractive “scam” on senior citizens?
- Identify the ethical rules that the lawyer likely violated in each case, and why you think the rules were violated? Make sure to provide the proper citation for the rules.
- Do you think that taking away the insurance agent’s license is adequate? What more could be done to protect the victims of these scams?
